In an effort to not have yet another fragmented location for fans to find new music and articles, admins of synthetix (including myself) and /r/futuresynth have discussed having one centralized location. So I officially grabbed /r/synthetix to "park" it so someone unaffiliated wouldn't try and start something that we wouldn't be able to curate.
Stay Retro!

Hello,
This sub-reddit has been quiet for a while. I wanted to drop a note asking if anyone is using Fantom in their current workflow? Are there any FOSS projects in Fantom that need contributors (I'll check the Fantom forums as well)?
I am considering starting a new project in Fantom with F4 for fun and profit. I really like the syntax compared to other JVM languages. My daily language these days is C#, and even though .NET Core has arrived on *nix with first class support from Microsoft, I really enjoy the performance characteristics of a well-tuned JVM.
I may not have a long love affair with Fantom, but I'm sure I'll have some fun while the getting is good.

Thank you everyone, and as I said before I will be donating a percentage to the next winner so this sub can change even more lives for the better. Any money received will be going to my student loans.
I hope we can grow this sub to make things better for many deserving people.

###[twitter](https://twitter.com/reddit_million) | [mailing list](https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/redditmillion)
**TL;DR: Leave a comment on this thread. A random user will be chosen, and everyone donates a dollar to make a millionaire. Don't forget to upvote this thread, subscribe to our twitter, and join our mailing list! [Reminder to donate](http://bit.ly/29JwkC8) and [reminder to enter the next drawing](http://bit.ly/29JvVQb)**
**What is this, anyway?**
A year ago, a redditor posted an idea in /r/Showerthoughts that speculated the fact that [If a million of us picked a certain redditor and all donated just $1, we would have the power to make someone a millionaire](http://www.reddit.com/r/Showerthoughts/comments/2mq94c/if_a_million_of_us_picked_a_certain_redditor_and/).
We are now an embodiment of that showerthought, and this is our next attempt to make it happen.
We **need** your help to keep this running, which only amounts to a $1 a month to make someone's day. Now how does it work? Look below.
**How to enter:**
* REQUIRED: Leave **one** (1) top level comment in reply to this thread! Replying to other comments will not count. We highly recommend commenting `"RemindMe! 2 days Donation for /r/millionairemakers"`, this will remind you via PM to donate. You can also follow [this link](http://bit.ly/29JwkC8) and click send to be reminded to donate.
**Important Rules:**
* Only ONE top level *(not a reply)* comment per person, but feel free to reply to other comments. Making duplicate top level comments may result in exclusion from entering. Go to /u/me to ensure you don't accidentally double comment. Delete any extra duplicates ASAP.
* Your account must be older than 30 days with some amount of activity. Obvious throwaway accounts with very minimal activity will also not be eligible. This is to prevent multiple entries from the same person.
**How will the winner be picked and how can you donate?**
* After **24 hours** this thread will close and the method of selection will begin.
* The method can be read in detail [here](http://www.reddit.com/r/millionairemakers/comments/2ournt/explanation_of_our_new_drawing_system_inspired_by/)
* Method TL;DR: we assign number by sorting the comments by old, so the first commenter will be 1. We then wait for a randomly generated block (a string of numbers) from Bitcoin's blockchain, and calculate the winner using the formula described in the post mentioned above.
* The user who created the winning comment will be informed of their luck and will provide any information necessary for the chosen payment method (mods will help set this up if needed).
* The generous Reddit community donates to this lucky person, hopefully making some worthy soul a millionaire!
* The lucky redditor posts a thank you within the next days, revealing to the community exactly how much was raised and thanking the community for their generosity.
**Reminders**
* Take the time you have available now to setup your PayPal account and/or cryptocurrency wallets. For Bitcoin, we recommend using [Changetip](http://changetip.com) to purchase bitcoin with your credit card. You can also use [Circle](https://www.circle.com/) for instant credit card purchases or [Coinbase](https://www.coinbase.com/) for purchases using your bank account.
* Please try your best to donate a $1, no matter who wins. Every single dollar, cent, anything really counts, so please take the effort to remember and go through with it.
* If you want to be reminded to donate, please comment `"RemindMe! 2 days Donation for /r/millionairemakers"` or check out our [IFTTT recipes](/r/jaysamuel/comments/2wnvrw/all_of_my_ifttt_recipes/).
* Spread the word! The more people who participate, the better this gets for everyone! There has been a cool correlation between where we made it it in /r/all and donations.
* Try to cross-post this post to relevant subs. (Please don't spam other subs though. We're not trying to make any enemies here)
* **If you are under 18, please talk to your parents to get their consent to participate and use their help to setup a PayPal account.**
At this point, Reddit, it's all up to you. Make us proud. Change the world. Prove the internet can do good.
**MOST IMPORTANTLY**
Remember, this is about generosity, about making history, and about coming together to make someone's life better. So take 3 minutes to donate a bit to the winner, whether you're well off and want to donate a few bucks, or going through tough times and can only donate a few cents. Every cent counts.
Note about legality: This is NOT a lottery. You don't have to pay to enter. Also, WE are not giving any prizes away (the moderators will never even touch your donations). As for gift taxes, according to the IRS they're generally paid by the donor, and any donation under $14,000 is not taxable.
Think of what you could do with $1,000,000... You could pay off student loans, have lifesaving surgery, or even give $1 to a million people!
So Reddit, thanks for sticking with us through that long post. It's finally time to change a life. Help us to the front page, so we can make history, and...

Hi everyone this comes to me as such an incredible surprise I'm ecstatic beyond belief. I'm 27 years old and I live in Washington state and work as a caregiver for a residential services company. This couldn't have been bestowed upon me at a better time as I'm planning a trip with my girlfriend of 3 years this coming august! I'm very grateful and happy about this help that I'll be receiving from this great community.
I want to say that I promise first and foremost that I'll return the kindness from all of you to the next winner of /r/millionairemakers and to use these donations in a progressing means to better the well being of my family and myself, thank you so much to everyone I really appreciate.
Update: Thank you for all your pleasant comments and messages I greatly appreciate it. I understand that my account may look like an alternate which I agree I would question as well, but I would be more than willing to verify this username.
Update #2: Good morning everyone, I wanted to update the status of the earnings up to this moment and the total is $491.60!
I apologize for slacking on replying to everyone on here, my galaxy s4 runs out of battery pretty quick unfortunately. My girlfriend and I are in still such disbelief that this amazing thing has happened for us as I sincerely want to say thank you for this.
Part of our trip is actually this coming Friday which we will be road tripping to Seattle for their Capitol Hill block party which is a three day festival where we finally get to experience our two favorite artists perform live for our first time which are Crystal Castles & Washed Out!
While being there I will be able to take my girlfriend to the Seattle zoo where she's been wanting to go for some time being that she's never been able to experience visiting one, so with this opportunity given to me by you I'm ultimately grateful for this.
Update #3: Let me weigh in on some of this conspiracy chatter. Since the third drawing of this contest I've had an aspiration of winning this drawing just like most of us in this subreddit, so I made sure to follow the rules and requirements every time I entered.
Briefly looking at some of the other users accounts before they won this drawing and it doesn't look much different than mine and with other redditors commenting and messaging that they would be in the same boat as myself in regards to activity makes most of these complaints unnecessary.
So to be assumed that I cheated or was in kahoots with the mods by entering multiple times with throwaways makes me that much happier and astonished knowing that I entered with my main account and won against 17,000 other users. Also as lame as this may sound I take pride on how original and creative my user handle is, especially with receiving a message from a redditor complimenting my username is very uplifting
So with that said my upvotes are finally public so we can all judge accordingly for ourselves.
Update #4: Our total after one day is $722.09! I can't believe what I've experienced today in any way, thank you so much for this.
Update #5: Hey everyone we're at $876.65 as of almost three days now. I can't fathom any of this still. Thank you to everyone who has helped me I'm extremely grateful for this opportunity.
Update #6: Hello everyone sorry for the lack of updates, our total is at $987.35! Thank you to everyone who made this weekend trip possible for us we're beyond grateful.
Update #7: we're at $1,071 as of today thank you to everyone who has helped me it means everything! Best of luck to everyone this weekend.

Hi,
Like many others I was driven here by a AskReddit post about which sub would most benefit by a large influx of subscribers.
And like all of those before me, I admire the idea and what is trying to be achieved here. It resonates with me and my ambitions in life.
I am a entrepreneur, and run a financial technology company. But that's not the important part.
I want to know, from the existing community, what is it that you feel that we (anyone in the community, new/old) can do to further along the project?
Example: I am a full stack developer, which specializes in web development. I would be willing to offer my time and skills to build something that could improve user engagement, and increase donations.
I have some ideas on how to increase the probability of success, and would like to share them. Most would be obvious, and I am sure the existing members of the subreddit have discussed them, but with the influx of new users, I hope to get some more feedback/ideas.
So let's break it down.
**How do we make this a success?**
1. Increase subs
2. Increase donations
**How does one do that?**
**Increase subs**
The most obvious means of increasing the subscriber count would be to increase awareness. However simple as that may sound, it is why people hold the title of marketing/advertising experts. If you are one of these please share an idea.
I have a few ideas, they may not be the best, but I will share in the hopes it stimulates conversation.
* Build a standalone website
This is not to replace the subreddit, it would be a single landing page with all the important information that will act as a lead generator and traffic driver. The website can then make use of existing online advertising streams (Google AdWords eg.) It would also be an easy and convenient way to organize large amounts of information in an easy to consume fashion.
The website could also appeal to a large user base of non redditors. It still amazes me that there are a very large number of gamers/techies that don't access Reddit because of whatever stigma that they may associate with it.
* Social media influencers
Whether it is Instagram, Twitter, or Youtube, a case could be made for the effectiveness of reaching a specific target audience through these. If you were to be featured by a "Success coach" or one of the many "make you rich" channels, their audience would immediately take an instant interest. People all over the world are looking for a way to become a millionaire, and hopefully some of those would be willing to participate in both sides to this project (entering/donating).
* Media coverage
Another method to increasing the subscriber count would be to be featured by a large blog or media outlet, like TechCrunch or something similar. This is not as difficult as one would think. Someone would need to gather all the pertinent information and make a story out of it. If it is well written, and packaged properly, all one is required to do is put it out as a Press Release on something like PRNewswire (http://www.prnewswire.com/). For those of you unfamiliar with what this is, its a database of press releases that media houses access to find stories. The more direct approach would be to get hold of a author/editors email/twitter handle and cold contact them.
Please note: if you do decide to cold email/contact authors/editors, remember to be courteous. You want them to do something for you, there is no need to be rude or demanding. Be considerate of their time, and present everything in a very clear and concise way. They typically lose interest if they need to do more work than they should when looking into potential stories.
I'm reaching the character limit on this post. And depending on the success of this post (engagement/discussion). I'll hold off and post the 2nd (How to increase donators) in a few days.
Mod's, if i am overstepping any boundaries, feel free to remove this post. | r/millionairemakers | post | r/millionairemakers | 2016-08-16 | Z0FBQUFBQm5zR0NxWkJ6azlfZnFLclFnYnRIUnN1V2tWbDhwcTQyV2dNZW0ySXNHT1BwYW5rWHYwV0RTRGdyTmkzbE1uY0RmZjdsNkh0RGRucDhOdDR2ajZjTldyTklYeEE9PQ== | Z0FBQUFBQm5zR0M5eW52Rmw5N1h1X0ZxNGFLbHhkdkhhZG9sdXdmNGJmQWU2UHVCZUI3b1RjLUtXUzlQeGtxdTN2YW1hZThHN3E0TFdmczdVc1NRQzFfUEs1UXlxaVZGY3FZc3ZwaTVHTGRRXzVJYmQtcy1CekFWSVo4dml5RWdaY0JNYjVBNlgzZS1YZUxHSFp0YlFFcjdVa1BBNXZLU1p3ZlRLdU03c1BLWEE5TWFUcDNsQ2o3MU51ZGo3THE4VjNnSjdIX1JwSW00b3lFQVJ4WmlGWmI5T1NVNlYxNDNnZz09 |
Welcome to /r/millionairemakers! We hope you'll like it here (we do!).
---
**What is this idea?**
The idea is to make someone's day (or year!). Once a month, we hold a drawing and choose a winner. When someone is chosen, everyone is encouraged to donate a dollar to the winner!
---
**How do I enter?**
Our next drawing is August 19^th. [Click here](http://bit.ly/29JvVQb) to be reminded to enter. At 6:30 PM EST, we'll post an entry thread, where you can comment on to enter.
---
**How can I donate to the winner?**
/u/whenthedayforms won the last drawing! [Follow this link to donate](https://www.reddit.com/r/millionairemakers/comments/4tcwd3/this_is_a_dream_come_true_to_be_given_this/).
---
**What are the requirements to enter?**
You must have a reddit account over 30 days old to enter. If you win, the mods will look over your account for some activity.
---
**Why don't people pay to enter?**
People paying to enter would create a lottery, which is illegal in many countries.

Hey everyone.
Just another hopeful entry here. I'll donate to the winner anyways, if I don't get it.
I was wondering what kind of accounts I would need to set up in case I were to win?
Do my accounts need to be set up before, or after the draw?
Thanks everyone! | r/millionairemakers | post | r/millionairemakers | 2016-08-18 | Z0FBQUFBQm5zR0NxMTgtSW1Fb1ZnWnp6bEVGeFg2ZElVazQzZktXUVZOT2J2VFh0cWZfcm9ldXRhYU92Qk03cVFObnI3aEhLblNfUjFzU3FyQ2F1dzk3WHE0cGY3NldBV0E9PQ== | Z0FBQUFBQm5zR0M5aENmUUNORkw3dDcwY3ROQUxJNTF2SDU4eUNLbzN1U3pXc0QtQ3pIdkFmRFlhSHBDNTI5VWI0YjlFdHVpM1BpQ0JiVndqQnltVDduWmdoQkZ5bnRLTGJ3UUxpR252WWRWN09LYVd4Z2thSFpkMGFvNjZBVlR1a0ZsZmtpV3o2RFBfVTdhQUpKdjRYbVViLVFOUGtwamx5WDVqeUJ4alJDYVJXTFNMVk9Oa0FvSVZUak1IajIxb0RPa1hCSFFWQXIx |

**TL;DR: Leave a comment on this thread. A random user will be chosen, and everyone donates a dollar to make a millionaire. Don't forget to upvote this thread, subscribe to our twitter, and join our mailing list! [Reminder to donate](http://bit.ly/2boMHDH) and [reminder to enter the next drawing](http://bit.ly/2bDWtDR)**
**What is this, anyway?**
A year ago, a redditor posted an idea in /r/Showerthoughts that speculated the fact that [If a million of us picked a certain redditor and all donated just $1, we would have the power to make someone a millionaire](http://www.reddit.com/r/Showerthoughts/comments/2mq94c/if_a_million_of_us_picked_a_certain_redditor_and/).
We are now an embodiment of that showerthought, and this is our next attempt to make it happen.
We **need** your help to keep this running, which only amounts to a $1 a month to make someone's day. Now how does it work? Look below.
**How to enter:**
* REQUIRED: Leave **one** (1) top level comment in reply to this thread! Replying to other comments will not count. We highly recommend commenting `"RemindMe! 2 days Donation for /r/millionairemakers"`, this will remind you via PM to donate. You can also follow [this link](http://bit.ly/2boMHDH) and click send to be reminded to donate.
**Important Rules:**
* Only ONE top level *(not a reply)* comment per person, but feel free to reply to other comments. Making duplicate top level comments may result in exclusion from entering. Go to /u/me to ensure you don't accidentally double comment. Delete any extra duplicates ASAP.
* Your account must be older than 30 days with some amount of activity. Obvious throwaway accounts with very minimal activity will also not be eligible. This is to prevent multiple entries from the same person.
**How will the winner be picked and how can you donate?**
* After **24 hours** this thread will close and the method of selection will begin.
* The method can be read in detail [here](http://www.reddit.com/r/millionairemakers/comments/2ournt/explanation_of_our_new_drawing_system_inspired_by/)
* Method TL;DR: we assign number by sorting the comments by old, so the first commenter will be 1. We then wait for a randomly generated block (a string of numbers) from Bitcoin's blockchain, and calculate the winner using the formula described in the post mentioned above.
* The user who created the winning comment will be informed of their luck and will provide any information necessary for the chosen payment method (mods will help set this up if needed).
* The generous Reddit community donates to this lucky person, hopefully making some worthy soul a millionaire!
* The lucky redditor posts a thank you within the next days, revealing to the community exactly how much was raised and thanking the community for their generosity.
**Reminders**
* Take the time you have available now to setup your PayPal account and/or cryptocurrency wallets. For Bitcoin, we recommend using [Changetip](http://changetip.com) to purchase bitcoin with your credit card. You can also use [Circle](https://www.circle.com/) for instant credit card purchases or [Coinbase](https://www.coinbase.com/) for purchases using your bank account.
* Please try your best to donate a $1, no matter who wins. Every single dollar, cent, anything really counts, so please take the effort to remember and go through with it.
* If you want to be reminded to donate, please comment `"RemindMe! 2 days Donation for /r/millionairemakers"` or check out our [IFTTT recipes](/r/jaysamuel/comments/2wnvrw/all_of_my_ifttt_recipes/).
* Spread the word! The more people who participate, the better this gets for everyone! There has been a cool correlation between where we made it it in /r/all and donations.
* Try to cross-post this post to relevant subs. (Please don't spam other subs though. We're not trying to make any enemies here)
* **If you are under 18, please talk to your parents to get their consent to participate and use their help to setup a PayPal account.**
At this point, Reddit, it's all up to you. Make us proud. Change the world. Prove the internet can do good.
**MOST IMPORTANTLY**
Remember, this is about generosity, about making history, and about coming together to make someone's life better. So take 3 minutes to donate a bit to the winner, whether you're well off and want to donate a few bucks, or going through tough times and can only donate a few cents. Every cent counts.
Note about legality: This is NOT a lottery. You don't have to pay to enter. Also, WE are not giving any prizes away (the moderators will never even touch your donations). As for gift taxes, according to the IRS they're generally paid by the donor, and any donation under $14,000 is not taxable.
Think of what you could do with $1,000,000... You could pay off student loans, have lifesaving surgery, or even give $1 to a million people!
So Reddit, thanks for sticking with us through that long post. It's finally time to change a life. Help us to the front page, so we can make history, and...

**This is absolutely crazy.. Thank you all so much.**
I am so incredibly grateful to all you lovelies for this. Late last night my phone started exploding so I got up and checked reddit and when I realized what happened I felt like my heart was going to pop out of my chest. It's an incredible feeling and I hope the community continues to support this project so more people can experience this.
A little about me: My name is Nick, I'm 19, and I live in Pennsylvania. I want to go to school for graphic design but haven't yet because I wanted to be sure graphic design is what I want to do, and because I didn't want to be in debt. So a large portion of this money will most decidedly be used to help me attend college. The rest of the money will no doubt be spent on only the finest of pizza pies.
Again thank you all so much for this, please continue to participate in this contest and continue to donate to make some very lucky person's life better.
I will try to answer as many questions as possible if there are any!
**Edit:** Hey everyone! Thank you so much for all the donations, I'm trying respond to everyone and answer all the questions. But to most of you I just want to say thank you for your donation, you're awesome.
I just broke $500 a few minutes ago which is crazy. I'll try to keep this updated incrementally. Thank you again!
**Update:** Hi again! Just broke $750 from what I can tell. Again thank you all so much for your donations, much love. Papa Bless.
**Edit 2:** Thanky thanky for the gold stranger :)
**Update 2:** And there it is! If I counted everything correctly I just broke $1000!! Thank you all so much, this is incredible!
**Update 3:** Good morning, and wow. I think the donations have exceeded **$1750** at this point and I couldn't be more grateful. I know I've said it a thousand times, but thank you all so much, this is absolutely tops.
**Update 4:** **$2000.** You all are absolutely amazing, and to all of those who donated more than a dollar, you are incredibly generous and you have my most sincere of thanks. I love you all.

/r/beermoney (Ways to make money to pay for beer. Supposedly.)
There are tons of posts about making money (mostly paypal) for beer in /r/beermoney. Survey apps, the like. However, a beer costs maybe 3.99, and I reckon that will cover you for 3 months on this subreddit.
/r/slavelabour (Get paid to complete tasks for other redditors.)
Smaller than /r/beermoney, but can sometimes pay out more. More skill is required, but the payouts are typically higher. (Saw one guy selling a service for $100. That'd cover 8 years, and 4 months of donations. Just think about that.)
/r/sexsells (NSFW).
If your really desperate with a burning desire to donate to the current winner.
www.bing-pong.com (Bing Rewards bot)
So, basically, what this does is your bing rewards searches in the background for you, while your free to do whatever you like. Various rewards, the $5 amazon will sell on /r/giftcardexchange for about %80. 4 months.

Hi there! :)
I'm beyond grateful for this contest, and I've been nothing but all smiles and tears today. I don't think I've smiled this hard for this long in my entire life! I can't thank you all enough for being so kind and generous. You are changing my life in so many ways.
A little about me - I'm a pretty simple gal. I like musicals, and I have a slight obsession with The Office and It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia. I love my family and I would do anything for them.
Winning this drawing means the world to me. The past couple months have been a bit of a roller coaster since life decided to pull a wild card on me. It's so hard to put in to words to explain exactly what I'm feeling today, being on this insane level of happiness, but I am so thankful for the people that started these drawings and also all of you. I can't wait to donate to the next winner!!
**Update:** It's 8:30PM CST and I will never forget this day. I really want to hug every single person involved with this. You are all seriously wonderful people. I am at around $1,100 and at a loss for words. This is the best group, and you are changing lives. I want you all to know that - every single one of you is helping to change someone's life. I'm going to get some rest for the night, the last 24 hours have been a whirlwind of emotions!! Good night to everyone, and I will update you all again tomorrow! Tons of hugs all around :)
**Update:** At 5PM CST all of your donations total $1929.23!! You are all *seriously amazing*. I want to say thank you over and over again. This is one very, very special group of people :) There are no words for what I've been feeling the past 48 hours, but I know that it won't go away any time soon! :) You have helped me get my life back!!
**Update:** $2268.91!!! <3
**Update:** I just hit a little over $2400, I'm trying so hard to not be annoying, but I just can't help it, thank you thank you thank you thank you. I want to try my hardest to reply to each of you, and it will take some time, but I am definitely going to try :) <3

###[twitter](https://twitter.com/reddit_million) | [mailing list](https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/redditmillion)
**TL;DR: Leave a comment on this thread. A random user will be chosen, and everyone donates a dollar to make a millionaire. Don't forget to upvote this thread, subscribe to our twitter, and join our mailing list! [Reminder to donate](http://bit.ly/2dutwxH) and [reminder to enter the next drawing](http://bit.ly/2eBNzGi)**
**What is this, anyway?**
Two years ago, a redditor posted an idea in /r/Showerthoughts that speculated the fact that [If a million of us picked a certain redditor and all donated just $1, we would have the power to make someone a millionaire](http://www.reddit.com/r/Showerthoughts/comments/2mq94c/if_a_million_of_us_picked_a_certain_redditor_and/).
We are now an embodiment of that showerthought, and this is our next attempt to make it happen.
We **need** your help to keep this running, which only amounts to a $1 a month to make someone's day. Now how does it work? Look below.
**How to enter:**
* REQUIRED: Leave **one** (1) top level comment in reply to this thread! Replying to other comments will not count. We highly recommend commenting `"RemindMe! 2 days Donation for /r/millionairemakers"`, this will remind you via PM to donate. You can also follow [this link](http://bit.ly/2dutwxH) and click send to be reminded to donate.
**Important Rules:**
* Only ONE top level *(not a reply)* comment per person, but feel free to reply to other comments. Making duplicate top level comments may result in exclusion from entering. Go to /u/me to ensure you don't accidentally double comment. Delete any extra duplicates ASAP.
* Your account must be older than 30 days with some amount of activity. Obvious throwaway accounts with very minimal activity will also not be eligible. This is to prevent multiple entries from the same person.
**How will the winner be picked and how can you donate?**
* After **24 hours** this thread will close and the method of selection will begin.
* The method can be read in detail [here](http://www.reddit.com/r/millionairemakers/comments/2ournt/explanation_of_our_new_drawing_system_inspired_by/)
* Method TL;DR: we assign number by sorting the comments by old, so the first commenter will be 1. We then wait for a randomly generated block (a string of numbers) from Bitcoin's blockchain, and calculate the winner using the formula described in the post mentioned above.
* The user who created the winning comment will be informed of their luck and will provide any information necessary for the chosen payment method (mods will help set this up if needed).
* The generous Reddit community donates to this lucky person, hopefully making some worthy soul a millionaire!
* The lucky redditor posts a thank you within the next days, revealing to the community exactly how much was raised and thanking the community for their generosity.
**Reminders**
* Take the time you have available now to setup your PayPal account and/or cryptocurrency wallets. For Bitcoin, we recommend using [Changetip](http://changetip.com) to purchase bitcoin with your credit card. You can also use [Circle](https://www.circle.com/) for instant credit card purchases or [Coinbase](https://www.coinbase.com/) for purchases using your bank account.
* Please try your best to donate a $1, no matter who wins. Every single dollar, cent, anything really counts, so please take the effort to remember and go through with it.
* If you want to be reminded to donate, please comment `"RemindMe! 2 days Donation for /r/millionairemakers"` or check out our [IFTTT recipes](/r/jaysamuel/comments/2wnvrw/all_of_my_ifttt_recipes/).
* Spread the word! The more people who participate, the better this gets for everyone! There has been a cool correlation between where we made it it in /r/all and donations.
* Try to cross-post this post to relevant subs. (Please don't spam other subs though. We're not trying to make any enemies here)
* **If you are under 18, please talk to your parents to get their consent to participate and use their help to setup a PayPal account.**
At this point, Reddit, it's all up to you. Make us proud. Change the world. Prove the internet can do good.
**MOST IMPORTANTLY**
Remember, this is about generosity, about making history, and about coming together to make someone's life better. So take 3 minutes to donate a bit to the winner, whether you're well off and want to donate a few bucks, or going through tough times and can only donate a few cents. Every cent counts.
Note about legality: This is NOT a lottery. You don't have to pay to enter. Also, WE are not giving any prizes away (the moderators will never even touch your donations). As for gift taxes, according to the IRS they're generally paid by the donor, and any donation under $14,000 is not taxable.
Think of what you could do with $1,000,000... You could pay off student loans, have lifesaving surgery, or even give $1 to a million people!
So Reddit, thanks for sticking with us through that long post. It's finally time to change a life. Help us to the front page, so we can make history, and...

A WEEK FROM MY BIRTHDAY!!! I'm astounded by the generosity of this community and happy to be a part of it. This is one of those things reddit does (really credit goes to the creator/mods for organizing all this so amazingly) that absolutely warms the cockles of my heart. As soon as I stop shaking I'll try to get some thoughts down here. This is completely unreal.
I'm an unemployed electrical engineer who recently moved back home with his folks, my unexpected unemployment sort of put the brakes on my life. Dream job out of the picture I am just now embarking on the path to create a company. This money will help me wade through the path I've chosen, and goes a long way to ease the worries of unemployment (re:health insurance)! I can not be more thankful for all the help.
This is just incredible, thank you you generous generous bastards.
**First Edit:** I got a late start but I think I've set up the tip bots properly now? Litecoin won't return my PMS ;_; I'll have that sorted soon. In the meantime you guys are amazing, $98 (ish) bucks! I'll update in a few hours.
**Edit 2:** Total is at: $217.50!!! I have to throw a special thanks out to /u/the_real_octojay (his BTC: 19v9SLayJtFvLgVvRwcZNhRtisNetXNcUa) who has been helping me out with this crypto currency stuff. We can't seem to figure out what is going on with the dogecoin tips. Either way he has ushered me into this crazy world of crazy internet crazy money. I feel like party cat every time I check reddit, you guys are the best.
**Edit 3:** 5pm: $300.33!!
**Edit 4:** 8pm: $454.04!
Watching this arrive has made this day incredible, I have to get to sleep soon (as I was up till about 4:30am last night in a complete tizzy). I'll update again tomorrow AM. THANK YOU thank you thank you thank you.
**Edit 5:** 7am: 814.21!!
I'd say this is the best thing I've done first thing Monday in recent memory.
**Edit VI:** 11am: $979.30!!
Looks like dogecoin is working! So excite, much doge. Also Paypal was at 666.41, sppppooooky!
**Edit G:** 4pm: $1082.32!
More updates to come as donations from you awesome crazy people slowly trickle in.
**Edit 8:** 7pm: 1109.88**!**
You all deserve special adult hugs, or whatever your comfort level is. I don't judge.
**Edit 9:** 8am: 1174.71!!
Paypal limited account because some donations were for exchange of services. When both $20,000 is received and 200 "exchange for goods/services" transactions occur Paypal needs to fill out tax information. WELL before this limit is reached Paypal will make you enter one of three tax IDs (ss EIN and, I think business tax number?). I've punched my info in and the account is unlocked. I had given them my info over the phone, but they didn't pu it in (I think it was just included as a note on the account). I just wanted to type all that out so future winners can see it and clear up any confusion!
**Edit 1e+1 :** 4pm: 1234.64!
So close to 1234.56. Some change tip stuff still has to register in the comments so its just a touch over that. I've edited down some of the early updates to save on text, make it easier to read. Trust me when I say they are full of excitement!
I've thought about this a lot over the past couple days, and I think I really want a physical thing to comemorate this. Something I can look at and say "the internet bought me X in 2016". A pile of cocaine is a transient thing after all.
With all the light milling/drilling work I do I've decided to go with a Grizzly mill/drill: http://www.grizzly.com/products/Mill-Drill/G0463?utm_campaign=zPage My lab is cleaner than a metal shop, so buying new will help me keep it that way. I should be able to leave a tool like that to future generations. Can't afford a plaque, but I have a few reddit stickers kicking around. More updates to come, all those that are donating late I'm really happy you remembered and it means a ton to me. THANK YOU MILLINOARE MAKERS!
**Edit 11:** 4pm: 1301.60!! [:D](http://i.imgur.com/h4UafNG.gif) Changetip caught up finally.
**3d17 12:** 1pm: 1334.45!!
Guess I'm leea...t? The tap has just about stopped so it may be awhile before another update. I changed the model of mill/drill after some advice from a good friend. still has space for a sticker or two :D
**Edit 13:** 1:30p (10/29): 1447.70
Spooky! Happy Halloween party night!
**Edit 14:** Bday time it's the 3rd, 3:33PM. I'm 33 **Total: 1472.92**
google changed the way wallet is displayed so I have to add everything by hand. Donations are sparse now so I think this is basically the grand total!! Thanks so much everyone, I'll update this post when I can share the actual physical THING that reddit bough :D :D :D :D D: :D
**Edit 15:** 11/22 total: 1532.38!!
I'm going to keep the changetip account open till the bitter end, so if you feel like liquidating toss it my way... oh boy that could sound wrong in so many ways.

I understand why it's not a lottery, but I don't see any explanation for why it's not a charity. After all, people are volunteering their money with no expectation of getting something in return.

ChangeTip is [shutting down](https://www.reddit.com/r/changetip/comments/5dn3rc/changetip_shutting_down/) at the end of the month. They are asking everyone to start emptying their accounts. You may transfer your Bitcoin balances to a traditional Bitcoin wallet or donate your balance to charity as you go through the closeout process.
I know many folks in here learned about Bitcoin through ChangeTip and many of us have accounts with balances. This is especially true for past winners who never merged their ChangeTip winnings into their traditional Bitcoin wallet.
To do that, log into ChangeTip with your Reddit account, click the Withdraw menu up top and choose Bitcoin. Scroll down to the second section (Withdraw). Copy and paste your standard Bitcoin receiving address into the Wallet Address field, click Select All Funds, and click Send. If you don't know your current receiving address, keep the withdraw page up in another tab and keep reading below.
Previous winners will already know their Wallet Address -- it's the one where they asked us to send our donations. For anyone else who is not familiar with setting up a traditional Bitcoin wallet, there are several ways to achieve that.
You may install apps such as Bread Wallet on iOS, Mycelium on Android or Coinbase or Circle. Once you are able to display a "receive address", copy the address into the clipboard and send it to yourself so that you may copy and paste it into the Wallet Address field on the ChangeTip Withdrawal page. Don't worry, it is perfectly safe to send your Receive address in the clear. You could even print it on a highway billboard and it would not matter from a security perspective.
If this is your first time setting up a traditional wallet, make SURE that you follow the steps to protect your access to your funds once you finish setting it up. This typically involves writing down 12 words. If anything happens to your device rendering it gone or unable to boot, the only way to regain control of your funds on a replacement device is by installing the same app and entering the 12 words you will write down as part of the backup procedure.
If you have very little BTC left in ChangeTip and just want to stick it somewhere without installing and setting up a wallet, go to bitaddress.org. Wiggle your mouse until the percentage counts to 100 and the screen updates. Once you see your Share and Secret addresses, take a screenshot and save the image somewhere, just don't store it in the cloud. Copy and paste the "Share" address into the Wallet Address field on the ChangeTip Withdrawal page and click Send.
**Note**: this last method is not to be considered safe for balances more than a few dollars, but it is just fine for this situation, especially if you're not willing or able to set up a real mobile wallet at this time. If you go this route, don't empty your ChangeTip balance into this address before this month's drawing, though, because you will need to setup a real wallet to send any Bitcoin you park in this address, including what you'll send to the winner.
Please know there are many of us out here who are perfectly comfortable with using traditional Bitcoin wallets, and I'm sure you will find us more than happy to help.
tl;dr install a regular wallet like Bread Wallet on iOS or Mycelium on Android, send your Receive address to yourself and initiate a withdrawal on ChangeTip to that address. Once the Bitcoin arrives, shut down your account to properly close it out.
**Final note:** Do not EVER, EVER try to type in your Receive address at any time. It is very easy to mess it up, and if you're off by one letter or number you could easily send your balance to an address that no one controls (i.e. your money is gone, forever). Always pull up your receive address your mobile app and copy and paste it somewhere so that you can pick it up on the PC or laptop where you're executing the ChangeTip withdrawal. | r/millionairemakers | post | r/millionairemakers | 2016-11-18 | Z0FBQUFBQm5zR0NxLVp1SlpYbGJxYkdPLUozelpwTXl3QTFpWjdTMkZZVzZlbVAtZ3JqLWdtNWktMUtJVVZqUVdwQWt4X2tjMjlPbWlXczcwRXdBUVRHTWtuamtzVDdzRUE9PQ== | Z0FBQUFBQm5zR0M5a21aeTlfOUFhd3RRNVZhTzNaWmhlZHR3SkhXWXNwVnlzdEtJVEsxMWZvTG5hZ0F6VDluTVQ3WGkwWVRxWE5XOEU4dXByMlZvVXlCQ2NUUzZKbnMwVWxDM1d2cVVNUFg3SWlaVGZGaVJjNkF3Y0lVdVpKRUFVeE1WelhwYzEyTGRoSVY0aWNoT2pDeGxGWUdMOEp4bFRCWFpYNU1VZXBIeVlra1UxUE5zZ01BNFh4a0FOT1pMVUFLMmdWNTMwaTRN |
###[twitter](https://twitter.com/reddit_million) | [mailing list](https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/redditmillion)
**TL;DR: Leave a comment on this thread. A random user will be chosen, and everyone donates a dollar to make a millionaire. Don't forget to upvote this thread, subscribe to our twitter, and join our mailing list! [Reminder to donate](http://bit.ly/2dutwxH) and [reminder to enter the next drawing](http://bit.ly/2eBNzGi)**
**What is this, anyway?**
Two years ago, a redditor posted an idea in /r/Showerthoughts that speculated the fact that [If a million of us picked a certain redditor and all donated just $1, we would have the power to make someone a millionaire](http://www.reddit.com/r/Showerthoughts/comments/2mq94c/if_a_million_of_us_picked_a_certain_redditor_and/).
We are now an embodiment of that showerthought, and this is our next attempt to make it happen.
We **need** your help to keep this running, which only amounts to a $1 a month to make someone's day. Now how does it work? Look below.
**How to enter:**
* REQUIRED: Leave **one** (1) top level comment in reply to this thread! Replying to other comments will not count. We highly recommend commenting `"RemindMe! 2 days Donation for /r/millionairemakers"`, this will remind you via PM to donate. You can also follow [this link](http://bit.ly/2dutwxH) and click send to be reminded to donate.
**Important Rules:**
* Only ONE top level *(not a reply)* comment per person, but feel free to reply to other comments. Making duplicate top level comments may result in exclusion from entering. Go to /u/me to ensure you don't accidentally double comment. Delete any extra duplicates ASAP.
* Your account must be older than 30 days with some amount of activity. Obvious throwaway accounts with very minimal activity will also not be eligible. This is to prevent multiple entries from the same person.
**How will the winner be picked and how can you donate?**
* After **24 hours** this thread will close and the method of selection will begin.
* The method can be read in detail [here](http://www.reddit.com/r/millionairemakers/comments/2ournt/explanation_of_our_new_drawing_system_inspired_by/)
* Method TL;DR: we assign number by sorting the comments by old, so the first commenter will be 1. We then wait for a randomly generated block (a string of numbers) from Bitcoin's blockchain, and calculate the winner using the formula described in the post mentioned above.
* The user who created the winning comment will be informed of their luck and will provide any information necessary for the chosen payment method (mods will help set this up if needed).
* The generous Reddit community donates to this lucky person, hopefully making some worthy soul a millionaire!
* The lucky redditor posts a thank you within the next days, revealing to the community exactly how much was raised and thanking the community for their generosity.
**Reminders**
* Take the time you have available now to setup your PayPal account and/or cryptocurrency wallets. For Bitcoin, we recommend using [Changetip](http://changetip.com) to purchase bitcoin with your credit card. You can also use [Circle](https://www.circle.com/) for instant credit card purchases or [Coinbase](https://www.coinbase.com/) for purchases using your bank account. **Note:** Changetip is closing in a few months. You can still donate via Changetip for this drawing, and will have a few months to withdraw your funds.
* Please try your best to donate a $1, no matter who wins. Every single dollar, cent, anything really counts, so please take the effort to remember and go through with it.
* If you want to be reminded to donate, please comment `"RemindMe! 2 days Donation for /r/millionairemakers"` or check out our [IFTTT recipes](/r/jaysamuel/comments/2wnvrw/all_of_my_ifttt_recipes/).
* Spread the word! The more people who participate, the better this gets for everyone! There has been a cool correlation between where we made it it in /r/all and donations.
* Try to cross-post this post to relevant subs. (Please don't spam other subs though. We're not trying to make any enemies here)
* **If you are under 18, please talk to your parents to get their consent to participate and use their help to setup a PayPal account.**
At this point, Reddit, it's all up to you. Make us proud. Change the world. Prove the internet can do good.
**MOST IMPORTANTLY**
Remember, this is about generosity, about making history, and about coming together to make someone's life better. So take 3 minutes to donate a bit to the winner, whether you're well off and want to donate a few bucks, or going through tough times and can only donate a few cents. Every cent counts.
Note about legality: This is NOT a lottery. You don't have to pay to enter. Also, WE are not giving any prizes away (the moderators will never even touch your donations). As for gift taxes, according to the IRS they're generally paid by the donor, and any donation under $14,000 is not taxable.
Think of what you could do with $1,000,000... You could pay off student loans, have lifesaving surgery, or even give $1 to a million people!
So Reddit, thanks for sticking with us through that long post. It's finally time to change a life. Help us to the front page, so we can make history, and...

I literally don't believe it. I don't play the lottery nor do i gamble, maybe its the irish in me playing some ironic joke, but im not generally lucky. SHOUT OUT TO U/LITTLE_FOXES!! SHE FOUND ME ON FACEBOOK, AND MESSAGED ME, AND WHEN I DIDNT SEE THAT SHE COMMENTED ON MY POST AND MESSAGED ME AGAIN WHEN I FINALLY ADDED HER!! THE TRUE MVP.
Ive been so caught up making accounts and trying to remember new passwords i dont even think i thanked her yet. I just found out as i was driving to my buddies house to hang out, and ive been on my computer the whole time in disbelief as i try to get my formatting correct. I said in my original post that i was going to take my family to ireland, but in all honesty itll go to christmas presents. Maybe this is the year i get my mom SOMETHING THAT SHE ACTUALLY USES MOM. Ill revisit this tomorrow but i really should get off my computer now cuz ive been the worst house guest ever for the last 2 hours.
Thank you all so very much, and IM SO SORRY IT TOOK SO LONG TO FIND ME! Anyway, my parents still dont believe me or understand whats going on, which is fun, but this is an amazing community and you definitely have a lifelong member here.
Thank you all again
Shea

EDIT#3: My mom has told me to put a watermark on the photos that I take, probably 85 thousand times now. Im thinking that for Christmas I'll get a print of one of those framed and matted, and surprise her with a watermark. Thanks for allowing me to make that happen you bunch of generous guys and girls from all over the world. The total is around $1500! This was thanks, in part, to changetip shutting down, because a lot of you just gave me whatever you had left in your accounts! The biggest surprise is how spread out everyone is, and how many different currencies were represented, this sub is worldwide. I can't thank you all enough, and I'm glad to do an ama if you all wanna chat :)

Christmas is coming which means the stress of the holidays is setting in, some of us not only have to deal with our SO's stressing us out because they act like children sometimes themselves but have to worry how we will provide gifts for our kids. Maybe your hours were cut, one parent lost their job, you are expecting another child, recently become a single mother, etc we are here to help.
If you are going through a rough patch at the moment and aren't sure where to turn for the holidays please stop by //r/SantasLittleHelpers We are a Christmas based assistance sub that helps provide families struggling during the holidays with Christmas gifts for their kids. Users can post a request with a link to their amazon wishlist and include how many children they have, other users who wish to play Santa will stop by and can read your story and help out by buying a gift or two from your wishlist. It works similar to a Christmas Angel tree at the mall expect for it is all done by reddit members!
We have a "cards" tab where you can offer holiday cards and stickers because we all know getting cards in the mail with your name on it means just as much as a gift.
Last year we helped provide over $60,000 worth of gifts to families in need all over the US,Canada, Australia & Europe. We currently have a dozen offers, contests and more up with lots more to come for you to enter there will be contests for books, clothing, shoes, toys & more.
If you don't need help but would like to help by buying a gift or two for a family in need or even just sending some Christmas cards please stop by and visit us. We opened this last Saturday and generally really take off right after Thanksgiving, we have several requests up along with some other fun things like contests, recipes, etc.
To see offers, contests or requests please see the right hand side of the sub, this will sort everything for you. If you set your reddit sorted by to "new" you can see the newest posts. [This](https://www.reddit.com/r/SantasLittleHelpers/comments/5ckb5f/helpful_tips_to_read_before_posting_these_tips/) is a helpful post to read before posting a request post it will help you with some questions you may have.
If you have any questions feel free to ask.

Hey everyone. I have been able to play this game for the past 5 months on the love of other redditors. I was given 6$ in changetip one day at random for a comment and I used that to open the account and found this subreddit. At that point I partook. Now that i've spent my 6$ and changetip is also shutting down. I was wondering what other forms of payment are out there?

**TL;DR: Leave a comment on this thread. A random user will be chosen, and everyone donates a dollar to make a millionaire. Don't forget to upvote this thread, subscribe to our twitter, and join our mailing list! [Reminder to donate](https://www.reddit.com/message/compose/?to=RemindMeBot&subject=Reminder&message=%5Bhttp://reddit.com/r/MillionaireMakers/about/sticky%5D%20RemindMe!%20December%2019%202016%2010:30%20PM%20"Donate%20to%20the%20/r/MillionaireMakers%20winner!") and [reminder to enter the next drawing](https://www.reddit.com/message/compose/?to=RemindMeBot&subject=Reminder&message=[http://reddit.com/r/MillionaireMakers/about/sticky]%20RemindMe!%20January%2020%202017%2010:30%20PM%20%22Enter%20the%20/r/MillionaireMakers%20drawing!%22)**
**What is this, anyway?**
Two years ago, a redditor posted an idea in /r/Showerthoughts that speculated the fact that [If a million of us picked a certain redditor and all donated just $1, we would have the power to make someone a millionaire](http://www.reddit.com/r/Showerthoughts/comments/2mq94c/if_a_million_of_us_picked_a_certain_redditor_and/).
We are now an embodiment of that showerthought, and this is our next attempt to make it happen.
We **need** your help to keep this running, which only amounts to a $1 a month to make someone's day. Now how does it work? Look below.
**How to enter:**
* REQUIRED: Leave **one** (1) top level comment in reply to this thread! Replying to other comments will not count. We highly recommend commenting `"RemindMe! 2 days Donation for /r/millionairemakers"`, this will remind you via PM to donate. You can also follow [this link](https://www.reddit.com/message/compose/?to=RemindMeBot&subject=Reminder&message=[http://reddit.com/r/MillionaireMakers/about/sticky]%20RemindMe!%20December%2019%202016%2010:30%20PM%20%22Donate%20to%20the%20/r/MillionaireMakers%20winner!%22) and click send to be reminded to donate.
**Important Rules:**
* Only ONE top level *(not a reply)* comment per person, but feel free to reply to other comments. Making duplicate top level comments may result in exclusion from entering. Go to /u/me to ensure you don't accidentally double comment. Delete any extra duplicates ASAP.
* Your account must be older than 30 days with some amount of activity. Obvious throwaway accounts with very minimal activity will also not be eligible. This is to prevent multiple entries from the same person.
**How will the winner be picked and how can you donate?**
* After **24 hours** this thread will close and the method of selection will begin.
* The method can be read in detail [here](http://www.reddit.com/r/millionairemakers/comments/2ournt/explanation_of_our_new_drawing_system_inspired_by/)
* Method TL;DR: we assign number by sorting the comments by old, so the first commenter will be 1. We then wait for a randomly generated block (a string of numbers) from Bitcoin's blockchain, and calculate the winner using the formula described in the post mentioned above.
* The user who created the winning comment will be informed of their luck and will provide any information necessary for the chosen payment method (mods will help set this up if needed).
* The generous Reddit community donates to this lucky person, hopefully making some worthy soul a millionaire!
* The lucky redditor posts a thank you within the next days, revealing to the community exactly how much was raised and thanking the community for their generosity.
**Reminders**
* Take the time you have available now to setup your PayPal account and/or cryptocurrency wallets. For Bitcoin, ~~we recommend using [Changetip](http://changetip.com) to purchase bitcoin with your credit card.~~ **(Changetip is now closing).** You can also use [Circle](https://www.circle.com/) for instant credit card purchases or [Coinbase](https://www.coinbase.com/) for purchases using your bank account. **Note:** Changetip is closing in a few months. You can still donate via Changetip for this drawing, and will have a few months to withdraw your funds.
* Please try your best to donate a $1, no matter who wins. Every single dollar, cent, anything really counts, so please take the effort to remember and go through with it.
* If you want to be reminded to donate, please comment `"RemindMe! 2 days Donation for /r/millionairemakers"` or check out our [IFTTT recipes](/r/jaysamuel/comments/2wnvrw/all_of_my_ifttt_recipes/).
* Spread the word! The more people who participate, the better this gets for everyone! There has been a cool correlation between where we made it it in /r/all and donations.
* Try to cross-post this post to relevant subs. (Please don't spam other subs though. We're not trying to make any enemies here)
* **If you are under 18, please talk to your parents to get their consent to participate and use their help to setup a PayPal account.**
At this point, Reddit, it's all up to you. Make us proud. Change the world. Prove the internet can do good.
**MOST IMPORTANTLY**
Remember, this is about generosity, about making history, and about coming together to make someone's life better. So take 3 minutes to donate a bit to the winner, whether you're well off and want to donate a few bucks, or going through tough times and can only donate a few cents. Every cent counts.
Note about legality: This is NOT a lottery. You don't have to pay to enter. Also, WE are not giving any prizes away (the moderators will never even touch your donations). As for gift taxes, according to the IRS they're generally paid by the donor, and any donation under $14,000 is not taxable.
Think of what you could do with $1,000,000... You could pay off student loans, have lifesaving surgery, or even give $1 to a million people!
So Reddit, thanks for sticking with us through that long post. It's finally time to change a life. Help us to the front page, so we can make history, and...

*Well, it seems that I’ve found myself in the spotlight and have quite a few people as an audience. I guess I’m obligated to address a few things, considering my comment that won the drawing has sparked some controversy. For those out of the loop, this is the comment:
“NIGGA Nigga nigga pay for my lunch tomorrow
Oh and merry christmas”
Honestly, I wrote it for fun, not really contemplating the repercussions nor its potential to offend were it to be chosen as the winning comment because I simply did not think it would win. I will admit what I wrote was rude and disrespectful. For my lack of consideration, I sincerely apologize. Where I live, the term is part of our vernacular. It’s colloquial, and inappropriate slang sometimes at worst. No one bats an eye if you use it, regardless of your race. I also understand many folks are not deciding to donate because of this, that is fine too. Again, I am apologizing to everyone I offended.
(I had this song in my head as I wrote the “racist” comment for those curious https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hiLpyfD-AGI i think it’s hilarious)
HOWEVER, some of you people are blowing it waaay out of proportion, and I’ll take any downvotes gracefully because knowing they came from people whose jimmies got rustled from a term widely used in songs, online, in media, and frankly large portions of society doesn’t sting all that bad. For fuck sakes, it’s 2016, not 1860, and had I said “nigger” instead of “nigga”, then the outlash would be warranted. There’s a reason you don't hear the former being used. Don’t have such strong opinions on things you don’t know much about.
I triple dog dare someone to go into my profile overview and find one instance of me being actually racist, by the word’s actual definition. In other words, find me actually bigoted, biased, and discriminatory towards any ethnicity. I promise I haven’t deleted anything besides a few cringe posts that showed my face or were from my high school blunder years. Get back to me on that if you do.
On the topic of my profile, I would also like to point out that some of you made me chuckle when you think this account is actually a porn alt account. That’s really funny. You bunch are some real talented sleuths. Yes, I use reddit to find porn, almost exclusively. If you check, it is apparent that I’ve commented on a litany of nsfw subreddits. But the thing a lot of you people who think I’m a porn fanatic failed to also see (or ignored) was that I’ve also commented on various video game, computer, skincare, media, and r/all subreddits. For the past four years no less. Who uses a porn alt for all that? Quit nit picking to find the bits that you find convenient to use as evidence, because people with actual sense will look at the whole picture. Stop trying to comb through my profile to find substance that you can twist to make me look bad, because that’s plain pathetic and petty.
As for the claims that I’m undeserving, an asshole, or an idiot, I’ll just say that people are entitled to their own opinions. It’s just that if you form that opinion based off one edgy comment without actually explaining why, it’d be wise to maybe not have such strong opinions on things you know nothing about, as I’ve stated earlier. Ironically enough, some of you people are withholding on your gentlemen’s agreement to pitch in when you’ve clearly stated you would in your entry comment. That’s more than enough information for people to form well based opinions off of. Just saying.
For insight into who I am, I’ll make it short. I am 18, heading into college, enjoy memes, enjoy video games like Red Dead Redemption. I’ve loved poetry since my ap lit class in senior year, god bless you Mrs.Lim(Traveling through the Dark is one of my faves, look it up if ya want). Portrait photography is great, and I love drawn art. My instagram feed is basically artists who use photoshop and draw sketches. In high school I spent time as part of a youth group that hosted youth led festivals for the community. I hope to major in computer science or engineering. I’m including this in case some of you forgot I’m an actual person, and not the embodiment of an edgy comment lol
I also want to thank everyone who supported me since the controversy sparked, you da real mvps
I know much of the community will not donate because of this ordeal because somehow that would support racism(??? As if the rules, spirit, and idea of this sub didn’t matter, and any money donated will go directly to kkk rally funding lol) but regardless, I still hope you all a very, very, merry christmas.
Cheers, with a little salt and love, iamchangalang*
**EDIT: As of 2pm EST, donations have reached:**
$617.28
This is already more than I could ever ask, I'll be tallying up the totals every few hours to keep you guys updated though!!! Also, upvote your fellow redditors, spread some points around folks c:
I'd also like to thank /u/JungleSumTimes as his generous donation of $20 just completely blew my mind, and to anyone who decided to go out of their way to donate more than a dollar, it's craaazy how generous some of you are
Big shout out to /u/RunAMuckGirl as well for their extreme kindness and support during the height of the controversy, the reassurance was definitely invaluable to me
I'll be back on soon folks c:
**EDIT2: As of midnight EST, donations have reached:**
$852.35
This is amazing, I honestly do not know what to say, other than thank you all so much! I wasn't expecting anywhere near this much because of the controversy, but you guys are proving me wrong with the generosity!
Also, let me know if there's a better way to keep you guys updated on the numbers!
I'd be really psyched if we surpassed the 1k mark and want to let you all know if that happens!
**EDIT3: As of 3:30 AM EST, donations have reached:**
$1016.36
IM SO PSYCHED YOU FOLKS MADE IT POSSIBLE TO REACH THE 1K MARK.

Out with it, redditors? What are you going to do with the money if you win? That way, if someone comments on here, wins, and doesn't follow through, we can shame him/her. | r/millionairemakers | post | r/millionairemakers | 2017-01-18 | Z0FBQUFBQm5zR0NxUkwxNXl3bHZ5RjZMSG0yQWFITDE4TFByYUU0MGhjZGh2Y0t6YU5rSUROWl9qcUFPRUhNUktTcUtOdVVWY2RDaDA2N0lhTGR6Yldia2Y1ZXBBQ0VNNUE9PQ== | Z0FBQUFBQm5zR0M5R0JEMFZqN3pweUlXNVlwSEFHWmVWdnVoNFJhc1ZZLVpHY0k3RjhrT0VEV2hqN1BJNUh3dmxkVW0tQU5xQ2dlYW1qbkxBcDBkM0psbWUtUDJFd0dRODZoZkUyLUdzYjZvR21GRzdSeC1JVy1GWlN6REtBY1VNRFJZTWVTMUFxemhaR3htUWdEcUVRVDhONVlGU1NSNExROFA5THVocDNkVXgwdnZSZGdaNEZFRllvZXVyWGZOQXdwamdFZkRCd0I0T2d3TXZOeVNRbElMdnVDc2cxVWxQQT09 |
###[twitter](https://twitter.com/reddit_million) | [mailing list](https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/redditmillion)
**TL;DR: Leave a comment on this thread. A random user will be chosen, and everyone donates a dollar to make a millionaire. Don't forget to upvote this thread, subscribe to our twitter, and join our mailing list! [Reminder to donate](http://bit.ly/2iUhYkW) and [reminder to enter the next drawing](http://bit.ly/2j3PWqG)**
**What is this, anyway?**
Two years ago, a redditor posted an idea in /r/Showerthoughts that speculated the fact that [If a million of us picked a certain redditor and all donated just $1, we would have the power to make someone a millionaire](http://www.reddit.com/r/Showerthoughts/comments/2mq94c/if_a_million_of_us_picked_a_certain_redditor_and/).
We are now an embodiment of that showerthought, and this is our next attempt to make it happen.
We **need** your help to keep this running, which only amounts to a $1 a month to make someone's day. Now how does it work? Look below.
**How to enter:**
* REQUIRED: Leave **one** (1) top level comment in reply to this thread! Replying to other comments will not count. We highly recommend commenting `"RemindMe! 2 days Donation for /r/millionairemakers"`, this will remind you via PM to donate. You can also follow [this link](http://bit.ly/2iUhYkW) and click send to be reminded to donate.
**Important Rules:**
* Only ONE top level *(not a reply)* comment per person, but feel free to reply to other comments. Making duplicate top level comments may result in exclusion from entering. Go to /u/me to ensure you don't accidentally double comment. Delete any extra duplicates ASAP.
* Your account must be older than 30 days with some amount of activity. Obvious throwaway accounts with very minimal activity will also not be eligible. This is to prevent multiple entries from the same person.
**How will the winner be picked and how can you donate?**
* After **24 hours** this thread will close and the method of selection will begin.
* The method can be read in detail [here](http://www.reddit.com/r/millionairemakers/comments/2ournt/explanation_of_our_new_drawing_system_inspired_by/)
* Method TL;DR: we assign number by sorting the comments by old, so the first commenter will be 1. We then wait for a randomly generated block (a string of numbers) from Bitcoin's blockchain, and calculate the winner using the formula described in the post mentioned above.
* The user who created the winning comment will be informed of their luck and will provide any information necessary for the chosen payment method (mods will help set this up if needed).
* The generous Reddit community donates to this lucky person, hopefully making some worthy soul a millionaire!
* The lucky redditor posts a thank you within the next days, revealing to the community exactly how much was raised and thanking the community for their generosity.
**Reminders**
* Take the time you have available now to setup your PayPal account and/or cryptocurrency wallets. To buy bitcoin, you may use [Circle](https://www.circle.com/) for instant credit card purchases or [Coinbase](https://www.coinbase.com/) for purchases using your bank account. To store bitcoin, we recommend the Mycelium wallet for [iOS](https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/mycelium-bitcoin-wallet/id943912290?mt=8) and [Android](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.mycelium.wallet&hl=en) or the [Electrum](https://electrum.org/#home) wallet for Android, Mac, Linux, and PC.
* Please try your best to donate a $1, no matter who wins. Every single dollar, cent, anything really counts, so please take the effort to remember and go through with it.
* If you want to be reminded to donate, please comment `"RemindMe! 2 days Donation for /r/millionairemakers"` or check out our [IFTTT recipes](/r/jaysamuel/comments/2wnvrw/all_of_my_ifttt_recipes/).
* Spread the word! The more people who participate, the better this gets for everyone! There has been a cool correlation between where we made it it in /r/all and donations.
* Try to cross-post this post to relevant subs. (Please don't spam other subs though. We're not trying to make any enemies here)
* **If you are under 18, please talk to your parents to get their consent to participate and use their help to setup a PayPal account.**
At this point, Reddit, it's all up to you. Make us proud. Change the world. Prove the internet can do good.
**MOST IMPORTANTLY**
Remember, this is about generosity, about making history, and about coming together to make someone's life better. So take 3 minutes to donate a bit to the winner, whether you're well off and want to donate a few bucks, or going through tough times and can only donate a few cents. Every cent counts.
Note about legality: This is NOT a lottery. You don't have to pay to enter. Also, WE are not giving any prizes away (the moderators will never even touch your donations). As for gift taxes, according to the IRS they're generally paid by the donor, and any donation under $14,000 is not taxable.
Think of what you could do with $1,000,000... You could pay off student loans, have lifesaving surgery, or even give $1 to a million people!
So Reddit, thanks for sticking with us through that long post. It's finally time to change a life. Help us to the front page, so we can make history, and...

Imagine getting off work and seeing that you won an internet contest to pay you more money than you make in a month, it's a really fun feeling. I'm moving in a few months, so this cash will help with deposits and whatnot, I might even get a cat or two with it.
I'm a twenty-something dude that will soon work at Starbucks to help out while I'm in college for accounting (that means I know how to dodge taxes on this). I'm in a two-person book club with my girlfriend and we're now reading Blood Meridian. I enjoy watching pro wrestling (Jericho is winning the Rumble). I send my girlfriend a picture of a cat every day, so thank you to everyone that posts cat pictures on Reddit. Thank you to everyone involved with this. I get shoutouts, yeah?
Matt Farley is amazing, everyone should listen to him. [Poop](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vw_agBQq93k)
Uhh Yeah Dude, building things up, not tearing them down. [BDP](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4Z_tUxghWeA)
Support your local libraries and read more books.
**EDIT: MY TOTAL IS APPROXIMATELY $1977.47. I want to thank everyone for this. Not just the donations, but constantly seeing an orange envelope, and all of the good wishes and cat pictures. This, without a doubt, is a fantastic start to what will turn out to be a phenomenal year for me. You're all great people.**

This is an edit for 02/27/2017 at 3:35 pm eastern time USA. The total amount between Google wallet $470.88, PayPal $1,655.46 , Bitcoin 0.25314 or $301.76 usd, Doge-coin 45,001.00 or $9.67 usd and Lite-coin 0.300 I did not do the math for this one. The total so far is $2447.77 usd. Thank you so much this will really help.
I was watching the drawing for a minute or two then I got board so I started looking at YouTube Aquachigger videos he is a good guy and then I got an orange envelope. My eyes have been messing with me for a few months so I haven't been as active as I like to be but I still scan r/all and my front page everyday. I didn't think I would win the MillionaireMakers drawing but I have watched it from the beginning and thought it is an ingenious concept that has turned into a reality. I abandoned Diggdotcom about 8 years ago and have seen some of the bad thing that were happening over at digg come to reddit but I don't think MillionaireMakers could have happened over there.
About me and the things I will do with the funding from this drawing.
So at this point in my life I have become a burden to my S/O and unable to work. I will be paying medical bills and helping with the grocery's. If you don't or can't donate to me try to do something of value locally to make it a little nicer where you live. Thank you.

**What is this, anyway?**
Two years ago, a redditor posted an idea in /r/Showerthoughts that speculated the fact that [If a million of us picked a certain redditor and all donated just $1, we would have the power to make someone a millionaire](http://www.reddit.com/r/Showerthoughts/comments/2mq94c/if_a_million_of_us_picked_a_certain_redditor_and/).
We are now an embodiment of that showerthought, and this is our next attempt to make it happen.
We **need** your help to keep this running, which only amounts to a $1 a month to make someone's day. Now how does it work? Look below.

* REQUIRED: Leave **one** (1) top level comment in reply to this thread! Replying to other comments will not count. We highly recommend commenting `"RemindMe! 2 days Donation for /r/millionairemakers"`, this will remind you via PM to donate. You can also follow [this link](http://bit.ly/2m57O2N) and click send to be reminded to donate.
**Important Rules:**
* Only ONE top level *(not a reply)* comment per person, but feel free to reply to other comments. Making duplicate top level comments may result in exclusion from entering. Go to /u/me to ensure you don't accidentally double comment. Delete any extra duplicates ASAP.
* Your account must be older than 30 days with some amount of activity. Obvious throwaway accounts with very minimal activity will also not be eligible. This is to prevent multiple entries from the same person.
**How will the winner be picked and how can you donate?**
* After **24 hours** this thread will close and the method of selection will begin.
* The method can be read in detail [here](http://www.reddit.com/r/millionairemakers/comments/2ournt/explanation_of_our_new_drawing_system_inspired_by/)
* Method TL;DR: we assign number by sorting the comments by old, so the first commenter will be 1. We then wait for a randomly generated block (a string of numbers) from Bitcoin's blockchain, and calculate the winner using the formula described in the post mentioned above.
* The user who created the winning comment will be informed of their luck and will provide any information necessary for the chosen payment method (mods will help set this up if needed).
* The generous Reddit community donates to this lucky person, hopefully making some worthy soul a millionaire!
* The lucky redditor posts a thank you within the next days, revealing to the community exactly how much was raised and thanking the community for their generosity.
**Reminders**
* Take the time you have available now to setup your PayPal account and/or cryptocurrency wallets. To buy bitcoin, you may use [Circle](https://www.circle.com/) for instant credit card purchases or [Coinbase](https://www.coinbase.com/) for purchases using your bank account. To store bitcoin, we recommend the Mycelium wallet for [iOS](https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/mycelium-bitcoin-wallet/id943912290?mt=8) and [Android](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.mycelium.wallet&hl=en) or the [Electrum](https://electrum.org/#home) wallet for Android, Mac, Linux, and PC.
* Please try your best to donate a $1, no matter who wins. Every single dollar, cent, anything really counts, so please take the effort to remember and go through with it.
* If you want to be reminded to donate, please comment `"RemindMe! 2 days Donation for /r/millionairemakers"` or check out our [IFTTT recipes](/r/jaysamuel/comments/2wnvrw/all_of_my_ifttt_recipes/).
* Spread the word! The more people who participate, the better this gets for everyone! There has been a cool correlation between where we made it it in /r/all and donations.
* Try to cross-post this post to relevant subs. (Please don't spam other subs though. We're not trying to make any enemies here)
* **If you are under 18, please talk to your parents to get their consent to participate and use their help to setup a PayPal account.**
At this point, Reddit, it's all up to you. Make us proud. Change the world. Prove the internet can do good.
**MOST IMPORTANTLY**
Remember, this is about generosity, about making history, and about coming together to make someone's life better. So take 3 minutes to donate a bit to the winner, whether you're well off and want to donate a few bucks, or going through tough times and can only donate a few cents. Every cent counts.
Note about legality: This is NOT a lottery. You don't have to pay to enter. Also, WE are not giving any prizes away (the moderators will never even touch your donations). As for gift taxes, according to the IRS they're generally paid by the donor, and any donation under $14,000 is not taxable.
Think of what you could do with $1,000,000... You could pay off student loans, have lifesaving surgery, or even give $1 to a million people!
So Reddit, thanks for sticking with us through that long post. It's finally time to change a life. Help us to the front page, so we can make history, and...

Hello r/millionairemakers! I was sitting home on a Sunday night watching Girls when some PMs started to come in congratulating me for winning. I could not believe it and thought surely there was some mistake. I feel so lucky right now!
A little bit about me: late 20s gal who put herself through an expensive for-profit college and many years later am still chipping away at the student loan "rock" that seems to barely be moving.
Changing jobs in a week so this is fantastic timing as there will most likely be a gap in pay. Hoping I have found somewhere I can double my current salary within the next 6-9 months so I am feeling very excited about the change.
I love going to concerts and wrestling shows and plan on using some of the winnings for fun and not just bills. Thinking of grabbing Summerslam tickets for August as I went last year and had a blast but was not thinking I could afford it this year. I also have 2 cats that I plan to get special treats/toys for too.
I just wanted to thank everyone who has already reached out to me to congratulate me. It feels like a dream and I love waking up to my envelope colored orange!
**EDIT 1**: 3-20 9:45PM EST - Paypal: $474.68 - GW: $103.23- BTC: $83.18 - Doge: $2.30 = $663.39! I can't believe all the support, well wishes, and donations. I am so grateful to everyone for making this sub work!! Kitty pics to follow :)
**EDIT 2**: kitty pics! Just what I had on my phone I will get better ones in the next few days when I get them some toys! Tiger is Lily and grey fellow is Pogo

**EDIT 3**: I was going to wait to update again on Friday but I'm just blown away by the kindness and generosity so I wanted to come on and update the new totals after about 29 hours.
Paypal: $748.99 - GW: $23.77- BTC: $72.45 - Doge: $3.75 Lite: $1.52 = $850.48 for the day and a grand total over all of $1513.87!! Thank you to everyone who donated to me and I will have updates over the next couple of weeks because I know everyone is interested to know the numbers! More kitty pictures to come as well!!
**EDIT 4**: 3-24 11:45PM EST - As promised I wanted to give a quick end-of-week update! Grand total so far is **$1843.51** (roughly since the price of cryptocurrency has been all over the place this week). I just want to thank everyone again for all the well wishes and donations. I am a bit busy this weekend setting up my office for my first day of work Monday but I will try and come back with kitty pictures before the weekend is up. Donations seem to be slowing down a bit, so I will update again next Friday unless anything major happens. THANK YOU!!!
**EDIT 5**: 4-3 just wanted to hop on and give you an updated total. I am now up to **$2099.27** total. Things have slowed down a it since the first week but I am still getting multiple messages everyday and really appreciate everything! I have paid bills including throwing a little extra on my highest interest student loan and made a donation towards the Congenital Heart Walk I am doing for a friend's baby in May. Also got the furry kids some items as well. Included pictures below of pogo in his new "watermelon" bed and kitty condo - lily didn't want to corporate for picture time :)

**EDIT 6**: 4-7 updated total thus far is **$2117** - Have a great weekend everyone!!!
**Final Edit** 4-25 hello all wanted to give you the most final total I think I will have it looks like I ended up at **$2213.88**. I appreciate everyone's kindness and donations and I can't say enough how amazing this community is and how encouraged I feel. I wish I had something more glamorous to show you guys that I got with the winnings but really I just got caught up on bills which is an amazing feeling and came at a great time because I have found out I need to move in the next two months so being caught up is so helpful. If anything major happens I'll come back and update otherwise, once again, **THANK YOU**

Wow. Hello, /r/millionairemakers.
First things first: thank you all so much for your kind messages and congratulations! It's been positively overwhelming to read through all your comments and messages. It's making this situation even more unbelievable than it already is.
As I was trying to keep myself from falling asleep at three in the morning last night, I suddenly received a Reddit message out of nowhere, and slowly it dawned on me that I was the lucky soul who won the 30th drawing. I can barely even begin to attempt to describe how absurdly lucky I feel. Again, from the bottom of my heart: **thank you**!
As for me: I'm a college student from the Netherlands whose interests mainly consist of music, art, entertainment, and travel - which is something I haven't been able to do as much as I'd like to lately. I'm not going to share some superficial sob story, but winning this drawing means incredibly much to me.
So what will I be spending the money on? I'd like to spend a few days at most abroad and see some of the amazing sights that Europe has to offer. However, I'll also save up a fair chunk of it so I have less student debt to pay off when I graduate. Chances are I'll also invest some of it into paying for study-related materials - textbooks and other essentials.
Anyway... I'm completely overwhelmed by your kindness and generosity. You are all such compassionate people and you've made me a very, very happy human being. This is an amazing community and I still can't believe my luck. Once again: ***thank you all so, so much. <3***
**EDIT 1**: It's 01:23 AM (GMT+2) here right now, and we've already surpassed 200$ USD!! I can't thank you all enough, I'm speechless!
**EDIT 2**: 12:45 PM (GMT+2), and I just woke up to find out that this incredible community has already donated over $900 USD. This is unbelievable. :') Thank you all for your support! <3 (On a sidenote: I'm currently having some trouble with Google Wallet as I don't live in the US/UK, so I'd personally prefer PayPal/BTC-donations right now - I'm working on it, though!)
**EDIT 3**: Almost 24 hours in, and this community has raised over *1500$ USD* already. I'm completely blown away. I appreciate your donations and heartwarming messages and comments so much!
**EDIT 4**: 01:10 PM (GMT+2) (25/04). This is just bizarre - over 2000$ USD has been raised already. I'm feeling so incredibly fortunate, thank you all so much! <3
**EDIT 5**: 02:33 AM (GMT+2) (27/04). This is insane - we've gone past 2500$ USD now. I'm stunned at all the support this community has given me. You are incredible.
**EDIT 6** 06:17 PM (GMT+2) (30/04). Hey everyone! This has been an unbelievable week. Just a quick update: as it turns out, **I can't accept USD on Google Wallet** since I don't live in the US. Your USD will probably be refunded in a week or so. In case you'd still like to donate, I strongly suggest using PayPal instead. Thank you all! <3

~~You may have noticed that the drawing wasn't put up yesterday.~~
~~We'd like to thank you on your patience; we are working on providing an actual update as to what is going to be happening.~~
~~Whether or not this month's drawing will happen is still in the air.~~
~~Some events have occured and conflictions have happened and it has created an obstacle for the mod team, we are working hard now to get a plan in place for future drawings.~~
~~Please stay tuned.~~
~~Thank you.~~
---
EDIT: Lack of moderator activity and time has made it so we're looking into options to prevent this from happening to future drawings.
Basically, we want to work to automate the subreddit.

Hey millionairemakers,
As you may have observed, we haven't been the most active recently. There isn't any particular reason for this, just that it's difficult for a group of volunteer mods to maintain a consistent schedule of drawings and livestreams. But that doesn't change that millionairemakers has been a wonderful community, and we want to keep it that way.
In order to continue, I've outlined of what we plan to do. Let's schedule the drawing for next Friday, June 23 at 6:30 PM EST. Click [here](https://www.reddit.com/message/compose/?to=RemindMeBot&subject=Reminder&message=[http://reddit.com/r/MillionaireMakers/about/sticky]%20RemindMe!%20June%2023%202017%2010:30%20PM%20%22Enter%20the%20/r/MillionaireMakers%20drawing!%22) to be reminded to enter.
### Taking Action
1. Start applications for some additional mods to help facilitate drawings.
2. Formalize the drawing process for mods, making it easier to run drawings.
Thanks for reading, and I hope we can maintain the great community we've built. Please leave any feedback in the comments, and I'll be happy to answer.

###[twitter](https://twitter.com/reddit_million) | [mailing list](https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/redditmillion)
**TL;DR: Leave a comment on this thread. A random user will be chosen, and everyone donates a dollar to make a millionaire. Don't forget to upvote this thread and join our mailing list! [Reminder to donate](http://bit.ly/2t0OGtu) and [reminder to enter the next drawing](http://bit.ly/2s56oYM)**
**What is this, anyway?**
Two years ago, a redditor posted an idea in /r/Showerthoughts that speculated the fact that [If a million of us picked a certain redditor and all donated just $1, we would have the power to make someone a millionaire](http://www.reddit.com/r/Showerthoughts/comments/2mq94c/if_a_million_of_us_picked_a_certain_redditor_and/).
We are now an embodiment of that showerthought, and this is our next attempt to make it happen.
We **need** your help to keep this running, which only amounts to a $1 a month to make someone's day. Now how does it work? Look below.
**How to enter:**
* REQUIRED: Leave **one** (1) top level comment in reply to this thread! Replying to other comments will not count. We highly recommend commenting `"RemindMe! 2 days Donation for /r/millionairemakers"`, this will remind you via PM to donate. You can also follow [this link](http://bit.ly/2t0OGtu) and click send to be reminded to donate.
**Important Rules:**
* Only ONE top level *(not a reply)* comment per person, but feel free to reply to other comments. Making duplicate top level comments may result in exclusion from entering. Go to /u/me to ensure you don't accidentally double comment. Delete any extra duplicates ASAP.
* Your account must be older than 30 days with some amount of activity. Obvious throwaway accounts with very minimal activity will also not be eligible. This is to prevent multiple entries from the same person.
**How will the winner be picked and how can you donate?**
* After **24 hours** this thread will close and the method of selection will begin.
* The method can be read in detail [here](http://www.reddit.com/r/millionairemakers/comments/2ournt/explanation_of_our_new_drawing_system_inspired_by/)
* Method TL;DR: we assign number by sorting the comments by old, so the first commenter will be 1. We then wait for a randomly generated block (a string of numbers) from Bitcoin's blockchain, and calculate the winner using the formula described in the post mentioned above.
* The user who created the winning comment will be informed of their luck and will provide any information necessary for the chosen payment method (mods will help set this up if needed).
* The generous Reddit community donates to this lucky person, hopefully making some worthy soul a millionaire!
* The lucky redditor posts a thank you within the next days, revealing to the community exactly how much was raised and thanking the community for their generosity.
**Reminders**
* Take the time you have available now to setup your PayPal account and/or cryptocurrency wallets. To buy bitcoin, you may use [Coinbase](https://www.coinbase.com/) for purchases using your bank account. To store bitcoin, we recommend the Mycelium wallet for [iOS](https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/mycelium-bitcoin-wallet/id943912290?mt=8) and [Android](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.mycelium.wallet&hl=en) or the [Electrum](https://electrum.org/#home) wallet for Android, Mac, Linux, and PC.
* Please try your best to donate a $1, no matter who wins. Every single dollar, cent, anything really counts, so please take the effort to remember and go through with it.
* If you want to be reminded to donate, please comment `"RemindMe! 2 days Donation for /r/millionairemakers"` or check out our [IFTTT recipes](/r/jaysamuel/comments/2wnvrw/all_of_my_ifttt_recipes/).
* Spread the word! The more people who participate, the better this gets for everyone! There has been a cool correlation between where we made it it in /r/all and donations.
* Try to cross-post this post to relevant subs. (Please don't spam other subs though. We're not trying to make any enemies here)
* **If you are under 18, please talk to your parents to get their consent to participate and use their help to setup a PayPal account.**
At this point, Reddit, it's all up to you. Make us proud. Change the world. Prove the internet can do good.
**MOST IMPORTANTLY**
Remember, this is about generosity, about making history, and about coming together to make someone's life better. So take 3 minutes to donate a bit to the winner, whether you're well off and want to donate a few bucks, or going through tough times and can only donate a few cents. Every cent counts.
Note about legality: This is NOT a lottery. You don't have to pay to enter. Also, WE are not giving any prizes away (the moderators will never even touch your donations). As for gift taxes, according to the IRS they're generally paid by the donor, and any donation under $14,000 is not taxable.
Think of what you could do with $1,000,000... You could pay off student loans, have lifesaving surgery, or even give $1 to a million people!
So Reddit, thanks for sticking with us through that long post. It's finally time to change a life. Help us to the front page, so we can make history, and...

I'll keep this short and sweet:
In case you were wondering : Yes, this is all rigged. /s
And yes, I'm not worthy.
I commented "Easy win" because I'm a troll. It was a joke. I saw it on the front page and I liked the concept. This wasn't supposed to happen.
On that note, I'd like to thank all of you who gave me a heart attack this morning when I opened my inbox. It means a lot to me that you tried to kill me.
I hope to learn more about all of this community in the coming days/months/years.
If you don't feel like donating (or whatever this is called because I'm not donation-worthy), just give back to yourself or something you care about. Maybe give to charity, or maybe just put that dollar back in your pocket and spend it on you. A dollar saved is a dollar earned. If you break down a million dollars into smaller pieces, owning a million dollars some day suddenly doesn't seem so impossible any more.
**EDIT**: I'm currently at work and I'll be giving everyone an update later tonight. All of you who have sent or are planning on sending money my way, I thank all of you.
**EDIT2**: Everyone here is far too kind! As you can tell by glancing over some of the comments, a lot of you are actually donating over a dollar which is way more than is necessary but appreciated nonetheless! Thanks to all of you have contributed so far!
**EDIT3**: In case anyone was wondering, probably going to buy a kayak so I can get drunk on an island!
**EDIT4**: Any crypto I receive will stay in the currency I received it in! HODL (ok I just realized I broke this rule of mine, except for litecoin because someone asked me to hodl it :') )
**UPDATE**: For those interested, this is the current (approximate) tally (06/29/2017 PM):
$2,852 paypal
$523 google wallet
.16810 Bitcoin = $425.36
13,600.16 Dogecoin = $36.35
1.809 Litecoin = $71.33
.298 Ether = $90.11
Which is somewhere around **$4000**!

**TL;DR: Leave a comment on this thread. A random user will be chosen, and everyone donates a dollar to make a millionaire. Don't forget to upvote this thread, subscribe to our twitter, and join our mailing list! [Reminder to donate](https://www.reddit.com/message/compose/?to=RemindMeBot&subject=Reminder&message=%5Bhttp://reddit.com/r/MillionaireMakers/about/sticky%5D%20RemindMe!%20July%2023%202017%2010:30%20PM%20%22Donate%20to%20the%20/r/MillionaireMakers%20winner!%22) and [reminder to enter the next drawing](https://www.reddit.com/message/compose/?to=RemindMeBot&subject=Reminder&message=[http://reddit.com/r/MillionaireMakers/about/sticky]%20RemindMe!%20August%2018%202017%2010:30%20PM%20%22Enter%20the%20/r/MillionaireMakers%20drawing!%22)**
**What is this, anyway?**
Two years ago, a redditor posted an idea in /r/Showerthoughts that speculated the fact that [If a million of us picked a certain redditor and all donated just $1, we would have the power to make someone a millionaire](http://www.reddit.com/r/Showerthoughts/comments/2mq94c/if_a_million_of_us_picked_a_certain_redditor_and/).
We are now an embodiment of that showerthought, and this is our next attempt to make it happen.
We **need** your help to keep this running, which only amounts to a $1 a month to make someone's day. Now how does it work? Look below.
**How to enter:**
* REQUIRED: Leave **one** (1) top level comment in reply to this thread! Replying to other comments will not count. We highly recommend commenting `"RemindMe! 2 days Donation for /r/millionairemakers"`, this will remind you via PM to donate. You can also follow [this link](https://www.reddit.com/message/compose/?to=RemindMeBot&subject=Reminder&message=%5Bhttp://reddit.com/r/MillionaireMakers/about/sticky%5D%20RemindMe!%20July%2023%202017%2010:30%20PM%20%22Donate%20to%20the%20/r/MillionaireMakers%20winner!%22) and click send to be reminded to donate.
**Important Rules:**
* Only ONE top level *(not a reply)* comment per person, but feel free to reply to other comments. Making duplicate top level comments may result in exclusion from entering. Go to /u/me to ensure you don't accidentally double comment. Delete any extra duplicates ASAP.
* Your account must be older than 30 days with some amount of activity. Obvious throwaway accounts with very minimal activity will also not be eligible. This is to prevent multiple entries from the same person.
**How will the winner be picked and how can you donate?**
* After **24 hours** this thread will close and the method of selection will begin.
* The method can be read in detail [here](http://www.reddit.com/r/millionairemakers/comments/2ournt/explanation_of_our_new_drawing_system_inspired_by/)
* Method TL;DR: we assign number by sorting the comments by old, so the first commenter will be 1. We then wait for a randomly generated block (a string of numbers) from Bitcoin's blockchain, and calculate the winner using the formula described in the post mentioned above.
* The user who created the winning comment will be informed of their luck and will provide any information necessary for the chosen payment method (mods will help set this up if needed).
* The generous Reddit community donates to this lucky person, hopefully making some worthy soul a millionaire!
* The lucky redditor posts a thank you within the next days, revealing to the community exactly how much was raised and thanking the community for their generosity.
**Reminders**
* Take the time you have available now to setup your PayPal account and/or cryptocurrency wallets. To buy bitcoin, you may use [Coinbase](https://www.coinbase.com/) for purchases using your bank account. To store bitcoin, we recommend the Mycelium wallet for [iOS](https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/mycelium-bitcoin-wallet/id943912290?mt=8) and [Android](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.mycelium.wallet&hl=en) or the [Electrum](https://electrum.org/#home) wallet for Android, Mac, Linux, and PC.
* Please try your best to donate a $1, no matter who wins. Every single dollar, cent, anything really counts, so please take the effort to remember and go through with it.
* If you want to be reminded to donate, please comment `"RemindMe! 2 days Donation for /r/millionairemakers"` or check out our [IFTTT recipes](/r/jaysamuel/comments/2wnvrw/all_of_my_ifttt_recipes/).
* Spread the word! The more people who participate, the better this gets for everyone! There has been a cool correlation between where we made it it in /r/all and donations.
* Try to cross-post this post to relevant subs. (Please don't spam other subs though. We're not trying to make any enemies here)
* **If you are under 18, please talk to your parents to get their consent to participate and use their help to setup a PayPal account.**
At this point, Reddit, it's all up to you. Make us proud. Change the world. Prove the internet can do good.
**MOST IMPORTANTLY**
Remember, this is about generosity, about making history, and about coming together to make someone's life better. So take 3 minutes to donate a bit to the winner, whether you're well off and want to donate a few bucks, or going through tough times and can only donate a few cents. Every cent counts.
Note about legality: This is NOT a lottery. You don't have to pay to enter. Also, WE are not giving any prizes away (the moderators will never even touch your donations). As for gift taxes, according to the IRS they're generally paid by the donor, and any donation under $14,000 is not taxable.
Think of what you could do with $1,000,000... You could pay off student loans, have lifesaving surgery, or even give $1 to a million people!
So Reddit, thanks for sticking with us through that long post. It's finally time to change a life. Help us to the front page, so we can make history, and...
